Chapter 38 Chunin Exams
Chapter 38 Chunin Exams
Genma saw Tsunade again on the third day after he returned to the village.
Fennel was also there, and she instinctively tensed up upon seeing Genma.
"What are you afraid of, you little brat?"
"From now on, make him call you 'sister'!"
Tsunade, fresh from losing her blood, exuded an aura of dominance.
Shizune covered her mouth and chuckled to herself; she already knew that Fennel had been secretly kidnapped from Kusagakure by Genma.
Fennel felt embarrassed, then greeted him, "Hello, Lord Genma."
Someone actually calls Xuanma "Lord Xuanma," tsk tsk, this feels really good!
Genma felt a sense of satisfaction. He glanced at Tsunade, who was pouting, and replied with a smile, "Hello, let me reintroduce myself. I am Yufeng Genma. You can just call me Genma. I am Fennel Sister."
"Of course, Lord Genma is also very good."
Tsunade curled her lip in mockery at these words.
Fennel blushed, then nodded: "Yes."
She was still a little afraid of the kid in front of her, even though he didn't seem as cold as before.
Genma looked at Tsunade: "Did Lady Tsunade go to Tanabata Street?"
I went to pick someone up, but they've been missing for several days.
Anyone who didn't know better would think Tony was delivering cargo.
Tsunade's expression faltered for a moment when she was asked the question, then she feigned impatience: "Stop rambling. What is it? If not, I still need to teach Kumin and Shizune medical ninjutsu!"
Xuanma's lips twitched, and he said helplessly, "I want to get some information related to sealing techniques."
Tsunade tilted her head: "Shizune, take him to get it."
She just wanted to get rid of this brat as soon as possible to avoid anyone digging into her past.
"Yes, Lady Tsunade."
Shizune immediately smiled and pulled Genma away.
Watching the two leave, Fennel asked with a hint of doubt, "Lady Tsunade, you seem... a little afraid of him?"
Tsunade may seem carefree and even a bit domineering, but after spending a few days with her, she's not afraid at all, which is why she dared to ask that question.
Tsunade's voice immediately rose several octaves: "He's just a lowly genin brat."
"I just don't want to listen to his rambling."
"This guy is good for nothing except for being lucky and talented."
Fennel looked puzzled: Is this a compliment?
However, the fact that she was able to safely take her away from Kusagakure with just a clone shows that she is a very powerful ninja, even though she is young.
……
After obtaining the information, Genma did not linger at Tsunade's house and went home to study sealing techniques.
He has now completely figured it out: he only needs to do the most basic cultivation, and everything else will be a breeze.
Because no matter how hard you try, it's not as good as changing the settings.
Therefore, Xuanma decided that he should focus more on how to obtain the set value.
If you're already using cheat codes, why would you still work so hard to train? Wouldn't that be a waste of your cheat codes?
The three-day holiday passed quickly.
Outside the Hokage Building, the team assembled, and Genma and his two companions received three application forms from Sakumo Hatake.
"Application for the Chunin Exams?"
Yamashiro Aoba asked doubtfully, "Teacher, we've only graduated for a little over two months, is this okay?"
Sakumo Hatake smiled and said, "I'll vouch for you."
"Besides, it doesn't matter if it doesn't pass."
"This is also an opportunity for you to compete with other ninjas from your village."
Yamashiro Aoba adjusted her sunglasses: "Genma should be confident, right?"
Xuanma shook his head: "That's not necessarily true."
"There are three rounds of assessment. If you have strong competitors, you may not be able to get promoted."
Shizune exclaimed in surprise, "Besides Kakashi, was there anyone stronger than you from the same generation?"
Sakumo Hatake said, "It's not just those from the same cohort; there are also some older ninjas, or those who didn't pass the test before."
"The village holds the Chunin Exams every July, so even Genma can't be careless."
Mute then realized what was happening.
Sakumo Hatake pointed to the forms in the three people's hands: "Go back and fill out the forms, and I will submit them."
"We will not be going out on missions during the period between the exam and the test; instead, we will be conducting special pre-exam training."
"Let's go, let's start today."
The Chunin Exams arrived as expected.
This reminded Genma that because of him, Kakashi had lost his records as the fastest graduate of the Ninja Academy and the youngest Chunin.
Only the youngest Jonin in Konoha history remains.
The value of Cards will decrease in the future.
……
The team arrived at the training ground.
Sakumo Hatake said, "Let's start with one-on-one duels."
"Aoba, Genma, come here."
Genma and Yamashiro Aoba nodded and walked to the middle of the training field to stand facing each other.
Sakumo Hatake and Shizune stood at the edge of the training field, surrounded by trees.
"Genma, although I know I am no match for you, I will still fight with all my might. I hope you will do the same and show me just how big the gap is between us."
Yamashiro Aoba said solemnly.
Seeing how serious he was, Genma nodded: "Understood, I will do my best."
Sakumo Hatake raised his hand, then waved it down: "Begin!"
As soon as the words fell, Genma and Yamashiro Aoba lunged forward almost simultaneously, like arrows released from a bow.
bang bang bang~
The impact of fists and feet produced a low, muffled thud.
The moment they clashed, Yamashiro Aoba's movements began to falter, because Genma's strength far surpassed his own. Even with deflection, he still couldn't withstand the attack and had to change his battle strategy.
Boom boom boom~
Craters appeared in the ground, and dirt flew everywhere. Yamashiro Aoba retreated and dodged, when suddenly Genma appeared beside him.
"So fast!"
Yamashiro Aoba, who caught sight of Genma out of the corner of his eye, immediately raised his arm to protect his head and took the blow head-on.
Bang!
The terrifying force caused Yamashiro Aoba's arm to slam into his head, sending his sunglasses and body flying sideways.
After rolling several times on the ground to dissipate the force, Yamashiro Aoba pushed himself up with his hands and unleashed a powerful fireball technique.
The intense flames scorched the ground, turning it black.
Xuanma charged headlong into the fireball, but just as he was about to collide with it, his figure suddenly disappeared and reappeared one after another.
"It's that substitution jutsu~"
Yamashiro Aoba was startled and was about to observe the location where Genma had appeared when she found that her body was unable to move.
"It's an illusion! Damn it, I can't break free, I'm completely immobilized!"
Yamashiro Aoba's mind was perfectly clear, but he couldn't even blink. He couldn't form hand seals, let alone bite his tongue to break the illusion.
It felt as if my whole body was completely wrapped in a spider web.
He knew that Xuanma was skilled in illusion magic, but when he first sensed it, he didn't expect it to be so powerful.
Yamashiro Aoba struggled, while Genma appeared beside him, a kunai draped over his neck.
"Xuanma wins!"
Sakumo Hatake announced.
Genma immediately put away the kunai and dispelled the illusion with a single hand gesture.
"It seems I have no way to get you to use your full strength."
Yamashiro Aoba said with a hint of helplessness.
Sakumo Hatake commented, "Aoba, since you know part of Genma's information, you shouldn't engage him in physical combat."
"Even though we know we will lose, if we have no choice but to fight on the battlefield, then the best strategy is to fight a strong enemy, either to buy time for our comrades or to buy time for ourselves to get reinforcements."
"Sparring is now equivalent to actual combat."
Yamashiro Aoba immediately nodded solemnly: "Yes, teacher, I understand!"
Sakumo Hatake then looked at Genma: "On the battlefield, you need to eliminate the enemy with the least cost and the fastest speed."
"That was clearly not the optimal solution."
Xuanma nodded.
Sakumo Hatake added, "However, the gap in strength between you and Aoba and the others is too large. You will serve as their sparring partner during this period of special training."
"I will be your opponent."
